Introducing our first project reveal as Studio Collected. 🤍

This dining room was designed for exactly what our clients do best: hosting. Long dinners, late-night lingering, tequila tastings, friends who overstay their welcome (lovingly).

We layered warmth into every material: fluted white oak, boucle and leather seating, and a brass chandelier that doubles as sculptural artwork. A dining room built for the nights that run long.

What you see, isn’t always what you get. 😉

From the outside, it’s just cabinetry. Open it up, and it’s doing a lot more heavy lifting. A utensil holder within arm’s reach of the range, and a blind corner system that turns wasted space into real storage for mixing bowls and small appliances you actually use.

Good design isn’t just what’s pretty. It’s what makes any given Thursday night easier.

The facets on the tub filler. The diamond-paned window above it. The edge on the subway tile. Bits of bevel - all planned to complement the other and capture the brilliance of the twinkling sunlight pouring into the room.

Add polished nickel and a freestanding tub with clean, slightly asymmetrical lines, and the whole room feels layered - perfectly in place.

For your Saturday scroll, a fireplace before and after that’s proof when you honor a home’s materials, you can elevate while keeping true to its original beauty.

The fireplace had the shape right from the start - an arch, which was repeated in the adjacent bookshelves. But it felt hidden under stone, drywall and an awkward picture mold trim.

The walls in this house are plaster, so we called one of our fav plaster masters to put his artistry to work. Same arch, same slightly fluted structure at the ceiling…but now, the plaster’s simplicity and subtle texture worked with the shape not against it.

And then there was the mantle. Our client is a collector of all sorts - including vintage Santas. Integrating a mantle, a stained white oak, where goal her Santa’s could shine was equally as important.

The bookshelves kept their original arches, now with a little wallpaper for some personality - a gorgeous, nostalgic @morrisandco pattern in a deep navy, moss green and parchment.

The result, a fireplace worthy on its centerpiece role.

So, I have been trying to put this post together for National Dog Day. And then small business ownership took over. Plus, this making content thing is tough…so here I am a day late.

But we love our pups - and they deserve a spotlight.

~~~~

Some of our favorite design clients are also the furriest.

They’re the first ones to greet us, the first to test the rugs, the first to claim the best seat…and are always keeping an eye on the install from start to finish.

We’ve learned that knowing the pets matters just as much as knowing the people they live with. It shapes how we design entryways, mudrooms, even the kitchen island…because a home has to work for every member of the family. So much so, dog care stations have become one of our quiet specialties.

We have, however, put together a few house rules, we expect them to abide by:

Please don’t sit on top of the sofa cushions.
Please take care of the rugs.
Please don’t chew the counter stools.
Please contain all toys in baskets provided.

And always:

Please take care of the humans. They need watching.

When the tile went in we gushed. We celebrated. The tile was, and still is, pure 😍.

But turns out it wasn’t the only showstopper planned for this jewel box of a room. 🐅
